The quality content of the new China Daily Global Edition is now available via the app

The China Daily app’s global edition became available on 2 January 2018, providing a new option for its broad international readership. Users will need to upgrade the app to the latest version before trying out the new edition.

The move, a first among China’s English news apps, came on the same day as the debut of the national English-language newspaper’s global edition. The new edition, a 16-page broadsheet, will offer more news analysis, financial and economic news, in-depth features and opinion pieces.

The same quality journalism will also be accessible through the app’s new version, offering mobile users a sleek interface and personalised reading experience. Readers can choose the China or global edition in the Personal Centre, the first step to customise their own newsfeed. After entering the My News section, readers can create their own newsfeed by following the topics that interest them.

Apart from high-quality and trusted news reporting, the app also revamped its Service section, which caters to the app’s growing body of international users who want to travel, study and work in China. The section is a full guide to everything, from visa policies to cultural events.

To celebrate the new edition in print and on the app, the China Daily in-app store has released new items available at 50pc off for a limited time.
